Simple round-robin hardware TX scheduling can cause starvation of TX rings with small packets when other TX rings have large TSO or jumbo packets. In the simplest case, consider 2 TCP streams running in opposite directions. The TSO TX traffic will hash to one ring and the ACKs for the incoming data on a different TCP connection will hash to a different TX ring. The hardware fetches one complete TSO packet (up to 64K data) before servicing the other TX ring. When it gets to the other TX ring, it will only fetch one packet (64-byte ACK packet in this case). After that, it will switch back to the 1st ring filled with more TSO packets. Because only one ACK can go out roughly every 500 usec in this case, the incoming data rate becomes very low. Update version to 3.125. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> |
